Maverick Modigliani
MAVERICK MODIGLIANI by Valeria Parisi

Born in Livorno, Tuscany, Dedo or Modì, scandalous genius and indisputable master of 20th Century Art: a portrayal of a short, tormented life narrated here from the original point of view of his young wife, Jeanne Hébuterne who committed suicide two days after his death. Together with the Russian aspiring poetess Anna Achmatova, and the English journalist Beatrice Hastings, who were the women he painted portraits of, and whose faces, almost caryatid-like, became the very icons of his art.

 

The action of the film unwinds through museum halls, enriched by the works of the Albertina in Vienna and the splendid exhibition dedicated to the artist at Livorno’s City Museum, as well as the National Gallery of Art in Washington and the great museums and art collections in Paris.
